· range 3.7–3.7
Candler Park maps to a single census tract in Atlanta, GA and houses 1,960 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.7/10, in the Lower tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Atlanta rate of 30.9%.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 22%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Disability prevalence reaches 15.7% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.
Running cool is economic stress, at 2.4/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 190 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 9.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.5% in 2016, is well off that peak.
That places it #59 of 77 neighborhoods in Atlanta. Average gross rent runs $1,679, close to the Atlanta average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $93,068.
34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
